President Donald Trump ended rumors that he could run as a vice presidential candidate in 2028, instead telling reporters that the Republican Party has “great” candidates.
Ending speculation for an appearance on the 2028 ticket, President Trump said, “I wouldn’t do that. I think it’s too cute. Yeah, I would rule that out because it’s too cute. I think the people wouldn’t like that. It’s too cute. It’s not – it wouldn’t be right.”
He told reporters aboard Air Force One that the GOP has “great people.”
“I don’t have to get into that, but we have one of them standing right here,” Trump said, referring to Secretary of State Marco Rubio. “We have JD, obviously. The Vice President is great. Marco is great, I think. I’m not sure if anybody would run against those.”
“I think if they ever formed a group, it would be unstoppable,” he asserted.
Discussing candidates on the Democratic Party, Trump said, “They have Jasmine Crockett, a low IQ person. They have AOC’s low IQ. If you give her an IQ test, have her pass, like, the exams that I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. I took those very hard, they’re really aptitude tests, I guess, in a certain way, but they’re cognitive tests. Let AOC go against Trump. Let Jasmine go against him.”
“The first couple of questions are easy. A tiger, an elephant, a giraffe, you know,” he added. “When you get up to about five or six, and then when you get up to 10 and 20 and 25, they couldn’t come close to answering any of those questions.”
